A fresh graduate, Lily Kingston, has trouble finding a job. Fortunately, her uncle who owns a luxurious Italian restaurant comes to the rescue. Because she lacks experience, she often commits mishaps working as the new waitress, but three male co-workers are always eager to help her get through the daily tasks. Through the course of the story, Lily can become closer to one of the men and eventually, whip up a sweet romance.
However, that is not the end of it.
"Ristorante Amore" is not a typical otome game as it offers a surprising twist once the prologue has ended. A whole new story is unveiled in the post-prologue which is aimed toward BL and galge aficionados.
The first thing that caught my attention was the main screen music, which really suits the prologue's theme. The art is also striking, and the post-prologue characters seem realistic. Romance game enthusiasts who are into sudden twists and turns will enjoy a playthrough or more.
